GENERAL AND cRIrICuLAH.

rich man ia this city sent for Mr..
Gumbo Chat, the accomplished son OF our
worthy colored citizen, Washington Lee
ChafT, aud Informed him that he had Just
made his Will, leaving him $1,000, and had
besides given orders to watermelon
dealer to deliver him two nice cold melons
every day for six years.
On being asked the reason for his gener
osity the rich man said. at is because
Gumbo Chan never goes along the streets
whistllng dlabolical combinations OF sounds
to wake people by night or torture them by
day.
"Did you obtain suitable model ~ in
qulred an artist OF another.
"Yes, did,"
"l'm glad to hear OF it.n
"My wife wasn't. | haven't got the
model now. I've got ilrst.class muddle."
A certain married woman says that she
hasn't given much attention to the question
Of woman's sphere, but judging by her hus-
band she would say that mans sphere is a
billiard ball.
"What was arrested fori" inquired an
old sailor OF a fellow prisoner in the court
room.
"The police found you half seas over"
was the reply.
"And, as q matter OF course, was run
into the dock. That was no more'n right"
When darling little pug is gone,
And nowhere can Ue fUuud,
lis then the maiden all fUrluTa

"Did you Interview Jay Gould about that
matter ?" asked New York reporter Of a
fellow scribe.

Mr.. GLADSTONE feels greatly en-.
couraged by the results of recent Par.
liamentary elections. They indicate q
steady reaction in favor of the Home
Rule policy, and predictions are freely
made that If the health of the grand
old man Is spared he will before great
while regain his majority following in
the House of Commons.

THE National Rifles took leave of
their arms yesterday. We cannot help
thinking that they had better have
taken THE Critics advice.

THE remedy is viii. c ugrcss," says

THE remedy is witt. G ,ugre5s," says
the Cleveland Leddsr. How?
Let no emlgraut land un our shores without
consular permit from the United States
authorities, Civ N at tho port whence hc sails
Let no consul be allowed to grant such per
nit unless satisfied that the applicant is a
sober. industrious man of good character. ON
such showing only, and upon paying to the
United States Consul the sum of siOO, should
permit 10 land be issued. Such rule will
shut out the paupers and oonfine emigration
to class iii for liberty and American cltl-
Zenship.

"THE Republican party of Ohio
cannot be true TO itself and false to
John Sherman" says the Cincinnati
Iimes.iStdr, which we are inclined to
think is about so. But what IL the Re-
publican party should not prove true
to itself? 1t is the common fate of
politicians sooner or later to overreach
themselves, but the country still sur.

ROBERT NJ. 7. HUNTER who died a.
his residence In Essex County, Va,
yesterday, was prominent figure in
the councils of the country from 1887,
when he was first elected to Congress,
TO 1861, when, in the second year of his
third term In the U. S. Senate, he was
expelled from that body for his sec3s'
sion sympathies and sentiments, lie
was for six years member of the
House of Representatives, and held the
position of Speaker during his last
term. In 1S47 he was elected to the
Senate. Casting his fortunes with the

IT IS now reported that President
Cleveland contemplates making extern
sive trips this fall throughout the West
and South, ard by personal observation
become more familiar with the extent
and grandeur of the vast Republic of
which he is the Chief Executive.
THE CRITIc approves Of the proposed
tours most heartily, for it is the recog.
nized organ and advocate of The consti.
tutional amendment presented in the
House on the first of last February by
Jedge W.Q. WuXem, the distinguished
NJ. Z. from Wnyback.
AS 1t was probably from Jedg2
Waxem's "ldees" that President Cleve.
land imbibed the inspiration for max.
ing his projected tours of observation.
we republiSh the amendment in ques.
tion in the hope that the spirit of its
comprehensive patriotism may inspire
other prominent Government officials
to go and do likewise by following the
Presidents example. The WaXem
Amendment reads as follows:
ARTICLE XVI.
No person shall be eligible as President or
Vice-President of the United States, nor as q
Member of the Congress of the United States,
nor as Judge of the United States Supreme
Court, nor as the head of an Executive De-
partment of tho Government, without first
having visited each State and Territory of the
Union. and by personal observation made
himself familiar with the magnitude and re.
sources of the American Republic.
DroefJant rIaua1opl anI ntbnr OF
men can gather wisdom from perusing
Jedge Waxem's contributions and THE
WASHINGTON CRITIC generally.
THE Democrats of Ohio will meet In
convention at Cleveland to day for the
purpose Of nominating q State ticket,
the principal interest of the occasion
centreing of course upon the selection
of gubernatorial candidate. Mr..
Thurman, for reasons that do credit to
his political sagacity, having announced
his irrevocable determination not 10 uc-
cept the nomination, the contest now
lies between Congreasman Foran Of
Cleveland, Congressman Campbell OF
Hamilton and General Thomas L. Pow.
ell of Delaware. The latter was sail
last evening to be in the lead, with 2jJ
of the necessary 330 votes pledged to
him on the first ballot, but Mr.. Forah's 5
friends are confident that after the frs.
ballot his chances will continue to in
prove, while Campbell 1t would seem,
is making little or no progress, the
point being made against him that he
is not so ardent supporter Of the Al.
ministration as the situation demands.
So far as the Presideut is concerned.
Congressman senCy leafs a small sized
revolt, but that Nir. Cleveland viii be
Endorsed by the conyoaion admits Of
little doubt.

A NEW arrival from the East speak.

A NEW arrival from the East speak
ing of paragraph in yesterdays
Herald upon our "corner" in climate
says that is the simple and exact
truth. This person goes on to STATE /:
cit was only few weeks ago that |
was talking to capitalist in Boston
who, knowing that 4 had been IN Cali
fornia, turned the conversation 'on Los
Angeles. The Bostonian he'd been
here and he expressed his views about
the city. They were substantially as
follows: Other places grow out OF
their commercial or manufacturing
facilities. Ore city is founded on a
seaport with s. large area for distribu-
ton around it. Another is built
upon the factories that spring
up around water power, coal
mine, or a quantity OF raw material.
Los Angeles has certain of both ele-
ments. She will be point OF
large commercial Importance, and she
will be place of some note
among manufacturing centers. But
above both, there are her climatic at
fractions. That is the most delightful
spot in the universe to live in. Now,
here are myself and fully two hun
dred of my friends. We are not in
valids by any means, and we would
not be averse to increasing our wealth,
but at the same time it is not neces-
sary for any of us to engage in active
business. We are in a position to
take life as easily as we desire, and
have enough left to leave to our child
rem when we die. All of us are max
ing preparations to remove to Los An
geles with all our belongings, simply
to dwell there in that delightful eli
mate, where we can really enjoy the
results of our years of active busi-
ness"
Los Angeles daily herald., 1887-07-28
THURSDAY, JULY ss. 1887.

ONO Republicans find themselves
with callous, cold-blooded and unpop-
ular old John Sherman on their hands,
much like Sinbad did with the "Old
Man of the Sea" on his back. The
man who became twenty times
millionaire while acting as Treasurer
Of the United States on the lean salary
Of that Office, and in spite OF "Black
Fridays" and other untoward circum-
stances tending to wreck honest enter
prise, has the Presidential bee in his
bonnet to an alarming extent. If
Ohio 'sgoes back" on her iceberg, he
may make it cold day for the party
i'm the next national campaign, for
there are not wanting those who think
John yindictive as well as ambitious.
To put him forward in all serious
earnestness for the first place on the
ticket in 'SS is flat suicide. In either
ease there will be asplit in the nation
al party. A way is sought out of
the difficulty in giving Sherman
the endorsement of the Ohio Repub-
lican Committee, row in session,
which, it is naively said, "can have
no binding effect on the convention
next year to select delegates to the
National Convention. No intelli-
gent person can read the programme,
and fail to see between the lines that
Sherman's best friends dare not set
him up for the Presidential nomina-
ton, But then, Sherman is great
worker. While at the head OF the
Treasury, some of his subordinates
testified that he kept them out all
summer "log-rolling" for him in the
West, while they drew pay as em-
ployes of the Government. He has
been persistent at all seasons in doing
this work i'm his own behalf for long
time past. He is an astute politician,
and may foist himself on the party.

SILVER is fast recuperating from the
effects of the recent raid made to de-
lnonetize it. The scheme of the
millionaires to enhance the value of
their gold was given color of truth by
the large output from some OF the sill
yer districts of the world. In fact the
enormous deposits discovered on the
Comstocks were availed of to carry out
the purposes OF the monometallists.
Had these deposits proved of large
extent and of uniform richness there
Is no question that the metal would
have become drug in the markets OF
the world. But the abnormal veins
If the "Bonanzas" in Nevada soon
became exhausted aud the output OF
silver ceased to be alarming. In other
mining districts there has been a
great falling off in the production ol
this metal, while the total amount OF
gold mined has quite materially in
creased. Last year there was taken
out 46OO,O worth of silver less
than in the previous twelve months
In the same time the turnout of gold
increased by over s2,O00,0O0. The
London Neacs in a recent issue com
plains Of a decided scarcity of silver
in that market, and expresses the
opinion that very small increase in
the demand would cause the price Of
the metal to advance rapidly. There
is no doubt that the remonetizing of
silver by England and Germany would
